The brief
Normal Sudoku rules apply. There are two paths of consecutive numbers from 1 to 9. One starts at the top of the grid and ends at the bottom. The other starts at the bottom and ends at the top. Consecutive numbers on each path touch orthogonally or diagonally. Numbers in gray cells are greater than ALL orthogonal neighbors. ALL POSSIBLE MAXIMUMS ARE SHOWN. Numbers with an X between them sum to 10. Numbers with a black dot between them are in a ratio of 2:1. Not all possible X and dots are shown.
